Red Dead Redemption 2: Discussion & Speculation (Part 2)

[eastriver]

Am I the only one bugging at the details hinting at Mexico?

People mentioned the Nuevo Paraiso outfit but the bonuses also mention "Elsewhere, the Del Lobos Gang has taken over a hacienda". 
A quick Google search will tell you that a hacienda is used in Spanish-speaking territories to refer is a large estate that could have a large villa, plantation, etc.

We have an outfit named after the Mexican region in the first game and a gang hideout referring to an estate in Spanish speaking regions. Why is no one talking about this?

While the leaked map is likely legitimate, that doesn't mean what was leaked was the complete map, or that the leaked map was ever fully accurate of the game's final map... for all we know it could have been a very early build of the game (Way before 2016, when it was leaked).

I want gameplay, they need to convince "casual(?)" people to spend the money.

 

Casuals are convinced when they see the Rockstar Logo

"This set of six individual pins includes representations of key weapons from Red Dead Redemption 2"

 

Sorry for the small Image size lol.. It looks like the Axe is making a return as a key weapon.

More complaining about the horses War horse looks great to me.

Now I’m really curious about the prison. Why is it marked as a settlement? Hope it’s used as part of gameplay. 

 

could be used as a outlaw hideout, would be awesome to buy black market stuff from there.

Yes, it's a shame.

Rockstar reminds me of Ubisoft and the likes more and more.

 

GTA 5 had the blimp as a pre order bonus and the Collector's edition had exclusive cars and garages,it's not the first time rockstar locks some content behind a price tag.

Lol

Well that's a mouthful

[Potter145]

Mexico will be a thing. Even the leaked map included a small Mexico section at the top. And now the talk about the Del Lobo gang and haciende, everything seems to add up.

 

Just another question though: Is the physical Treasure Map in the Collector's Box the same as the one you get for digital Pre-order?

[DarthMaster09]

Whether I pre-order the Ultimate Edition and Collector's Box from my local EB games or the Rockstar Warehouse, am I getting all the same content or does one retailer have exclusive content over the other?

[Auditore]

I don't see anything bad in the special editions,there's only one mission and gang hideout exclusive to those,the rest are weapons free of charge(that will be present in the standard edition),some clothes,and gameplay bonuses(also present in GTA 5 colletor's edition).

You are getting the same everywhere.

 

But there are two exceptions:

 

You need to pre-order the DIGITAL edition to get the treasure map + cash bonus for story mode and PS4 players get first access to select (online) content.

[Horrid_Saiyam]

Ya pays, ya plays. 

[vKing]

Man i really don't want to pre-order the digital edition, they tend to be unstable. But that treasure map tho...

[DarthMaster09]

Call me crazy, but I'm pre-ordering the digital Ultimate Edition on the PS Store (pre-order goodies such as the Warhorse and treasure map), the physical Ultimate Edition at EB Games (world map and exclusive case), and the Collectors Box. I have the money to spend and I want to make sure that I get everything.

 

Am I making the right move or am I missing something?

For GTAV, I preordered in a couple of Gamestops at $5 deposit each place, to get posters and the little slide viewer.  $5 was worth it.  I only picked up the actual game, and paid the balance, at one of them, of course.

 

At the second Gamestop, they told me I didn't even have to put down a deposit.  I thought, well, sh*t, in that case, I could do preorders at 20 stores, if I wanted 20 posters.

The Ardennais looks cool as f*ck, but can we also talk about that absolutely beautiful landscape in the background? If RDR2 doesn't have photo mode in some way or form I will most definitely cry.

 

Is this horse bulletproof?holy sh*t

[PapasHota]

Greedy C* sh*t like this make me appreciate Sony Santa Monica even more

[DarthMaster09]

The only things that the physical Ultimate Edition comes with that the digital doesn't is the world map and game case right? If so, is it worth pre-ordering the physical version to get the world map and digital game case or no?
